| As well as producing unique or variant cards available at events, [[Nintendo]] has also released several varieties of promotional items in which to deliver special cards. Such mediums include [[Value packs & sets (TCG)|value packs, boxed sets]] and collector tins. The list below focuses on collector tins, each of which contain a promotional card and booster packs from recent Expansions. The items are listed in (roughly) chronological order and contain details of their contents.
| | {{MerchPrevNext | prev=Neo | next=e-Card }} |
| | Containing only one expansion, the {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} Series of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] has an extremely limited amount of merchandise associated with it. Unlike other Series, the Legendary Collection Series does not have any collector's tins or value boxes, and only contains the two {{TCG|Theme Deck}}s for the Legendary Collection expansion. |

| ==EX Series Collector's Tin== | | ==Legendary Collection Theme Decks== |
| [[Image:EXTin1.jpg|200px|right]]The ''EX Series Collector's Tin'' was released in November 2003 and was the first collector's tin to be released by Nintendo. As the general collector's tin, with a window display and hexagonal design, did not debut until 2006, this collector's tin instead was rectangular and lacked a window.
| | Released on May 24, 2002, {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} brought with it a pair of {{TCG|Theme Deck}}s, featuring the Mouse Pokémon {{p|Raichu}} and the Flame Pokémon {{p|Charizard}}. Raichu's Theme Deck, {{TCG|Turmoil}}, features {{ct|Water}} and {{ct|Lightning}} Pokémon while Charizard's {{TCG|Lava}} Theme Deck features {{ct|Fire}} and {{ct|Fighting}} Pokémon. Each Theme Deck came packaged with a metal {{TCG|coin}} as well as a rulebook, damage counters, and card list. Each deck also came with one random Burst Reverse Holofoil card from the expansion. |

| ==EX Deck Tins==
| |
| [[Image:EXDeckTin.jpg|200px|right]]The ''EX Deck Tins'' were released in October 2004 and were the first tins to be released in a number of different designs. They were designed to hold a 60-card deck in sleeves as well as other items, such as counters, markers, coins and dice. Their designs were based on Japanese booster pack artwork from {{TCG|EX Sandstorm}} (''Miracle of the Desert''), {{TCG|EX Dragon}} (''Rulers of the Heavens''), {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} (''Magma VS Aqua: Two Ambitions'') and {{TCG|EX FireRed & LeafGreen}} (''Flight of Legends'').

| ==EX Collector's Carry Tin==
| |
| [[Image:EXCarryTin.jpg|200px|right]]The ''EX Collector's Carry Tin'' was released in 2005 and is a unique item amongst Nintendo’s promotional items. It features a carry handle, a latch and is the largest tin to be released to date. It is the same tin that was used for the Japanese {{TCG|Deoxys vs Rayquaza Gift Set}} in 2004. The tin art features a battle between {{p|Deoxys}} and {{p|Rayquaza}}, as depicted in [[Destiny Deoxys]].

| |
| [[Image:EXTin2.jpg|200px|right]]
| |
| Following the success of their previous collector tins and responding to the feedback from the community, Nintendo released the first wave of new “window tins”, in which people could see the promotional card included. The tins feature Japanese art from various sets along the side.

| |
| These were the first tins to have specifically designed lids to distinguish between each other (the designs also match the card available in the tin). They were also the first to be released under the schedule in which the tins become available now: spring and holiday (autumn), these being the 2006 holiday collector tins.

| |
| Also known as the ''2007 Spring Collector's Tins'', these are unusual as the tin designs do not match any of the promotional cards included (with the exception of Tyranitar in the UK and Europe), and the promotional cards differ depending on the country the tins were available in.

For a time, preliminary images of these were displayed as including a regular Torterra, Infernape and Empoleon, all found within the Diamond & Pearl expansion and its {{TCG|Theme Deck|theme decks}}. Nearer their release, however, it was found that they included their {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}} variants with promotional artwork instead.

| ==Holiday 2008 Collector's Tins==
| |
| Instead of releasing three holiday tins, in 2008, The Pokémon Company released two waves of two tins each, thus releasing four holiday tins instead of three.
| |
| ===Wave 1===
| |
| [[Image:DiamondPearlCollectorTin4Wave1.png|200px|right]]The first wave, called the ''Diamond & Pearl Holiday 2008 Collector's Tins Wave 1'', was released on September 17, 2008. These tins include promotional variants, with artwork not released in Japan at the time, of the Mewtwo LV.X and Rhyperior LV.X cards released in {{TCG|Legends Awakened}}.

| ==Spring 2009 Collector's Tins==
| |
| Officially known as the ''2009 Pokémon TCG: Spring Collector's Tins'' and to be released on March 2, 2009, these tins, rather than including cards based entirely on an expansion, are instead based on the three main Legendary Pokémon featured in [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]: Dialga, Giratina Origin Forme and Shaymin Sky Forme. All three cards are reprints; however, only the included Dialga LV.X reprint has been released in Japan. Both Giratina LV.X and Shaymin LV.X are to be included in {{TCG|Platinum}}.
| |
| | |
| These were also plans for these Collector's Tins to hold a collectible [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]] figure, but they were pulled before release.
